Another Patriot Safety
http://profootballweekly.com/PFW/Fea...news042403.htm
Free-agent news and rumors Could another Patriots safety be heading for New Orleans? By PFW staff April 24, 2003 S Victor Green may be the latest Patriots safety to head to New Orleans. Green and the Saints are reportedly in negotiations, according to the player, but the talks have slowed because of the imminent draft. Although Green reportedly thinks a deal can be struck before Saturday’s draft, it is more likely that something will come together early next week. Former Patriots FS Tebucky Jones has already been traded to the Saints, and the Pats want more depth at safety  without paying big bucks. New England has Lawyer Milloy and Rodney Harrison as its starting pair and inexperienced Antwan Harris as the third safety. Green, who signed a one-year deal with New England before last season, still could return to the Patriots, but there have not been any serious talks recently. Following a workout with the Raiders on Wednesday, free-agent WR Marcus Robinson will be visiting with the Niners Thursday. According to Robinson’s agent, Ken Sarnoff, the recently released Bears wide receiver is being considered by six other teams  Arizona (which has given Robinson an offer), Miami, Baltimore, Green Bay, Detroit and New England. Rams RFA ORT John St. Clair signed his one-year tender of $650,000 to remain with the team. The Niners matched the Lions’ offer sheet of $805,000 to retain LS-TE Brian Jennings, whom they consider one of the league’s best deep-snappers. We'll see what happens here. I like Victor Green but I hope that the Saints don't get carried away with giving up good picks for him. I could see the Patties going for Mathis if this deal goes through. |
